School of Theoretical and Applied Science
Nursing: RN/BSN*
Recommended Two-Year Upper-Level (Junior-Senior) Plan (Fall 2010)
The RN to BSN Program is designed for students who have completed an Associate of Science Degree or Diploma in Nursing and
are licensed as a registered nurse. This program awards the Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
This recommended four-year plan is designed to provide a blueprint for students to complete their degrees within four years. These
plans are the recommended sequences of courses. Students must meet with their Major Advisor to develop a more individualized
plan to complete their degree. This plan assumes that no developmental courses are required. If developmental courses are
needed, students may have additional requirements to fulfill which are not listed in the plan and degree completion may take
longer.
NOTE: This recommended Two-Year Plan is applicable for students admitted into the major during the 2010-2011 academic year.
This plan is the recommended sequence of courses, and may differ depending on a student’s transfer credits.
